How to adapt this employment verification

Before you write

Confirm the employee's name, role, employment dates and status from authorised records.
Ask the recipient which facts are required, and confirm permission before including salary or other personal information.

A practical example

For a rental application, HR can confirm the employee's current role and start date and supply a business contact for verification. Add salary only when it is required and authorised.

Common mistake to avoid

Do not turn factual verification into a promise of continued employment. A signature or stamp cannot make an inaccurate statement true.

Before you send

An authorised employer representative must approve the facts and sign. Check the recipient's required issue date and delivery channel.

Fictional sample details are starting points to replace. Letter Studio formats documents; a logo, signature or stamp does not verify their contents or confer authority.
